CUEMIX FX
74
A 16-BUS MIXER WITH EQ, COMPRESSION
AND REVERB
All 896mk3 inputs and outputs can be routed to the
on-board CueMix FX 16-bus (8 stereo bus) digital
mixer driven by hardware-based DSP with 32-bit
floating point precision.
The CueMix FX mixer allows you to apply no-
latency effects processing to inputs, outputs or
busses directly in the 896mk3 hardware,
independent of the computer. Effects can even be
applied when the 896mk3 is operating stand-alone
(without a computer) as a complete rack-mounted
mixer. Input signals to the computer can be
recorded wet, dry, or dry with a wet monitor mix
(for musicians during recording, for example).
Effects include:
■ Classic Reverb with tail lengths up to 60 seconds
■ 7-band parametric EQ modeled after British
analog console EQs
■ A standard compressor with conventional
threshold/ratio/attack/release/gain controls
■ The Leveler™, an accurate model of the
legendary LA-2A optical compressor, which
provides vintage, musical automatic gain control
The 896mk3’s flexible effects architecture allows
you to apply EQ and compression on every input
and output (a total of 58 channels), with enough
DSP resources for at least one band of parametric
EQ and compression on every channel at 48 kHz.
DSP resources are allocated dynamically and a
DSP meter in the CueMix FX software allows you
to keep tabs on the 896mk3’s processing resources.
Each input, output and mix bus provides a send to
the Classic Reverb processor, which then feeds
reverb returns to mix busses and outputs, with a
selectable split point between them to prevent
send/return feedback loops.
ADVANTAGES OVER HOST-BASED MIXING
AND PROCESSING
CueMix FX provides several major advantages over
mixing and processing in your host audio software:
■ CueMix has no buffer latency. Thanks to the
896mk3’s DSP chip, CueMix provides the same
throughput performance as a digital mixer.
■ CueMix mixing and effects processing imposes
no processor drain on the computer’s CPU.
■ CueMix routing can be maintained
independently of individual software applications
or projects.
■ CueMix routing can operate without the
computer, allowing the 896mk3 to operate as a
portable, stand-alone mixer with effects.
